CLAIM: Following reporting that the Department of Defense executed a likely illegal follow-up strike to kill survivors of an initial strike on an alleged drug boat, former Fox News host Megyn Kelly said in a December 2025 podcast episode that she'd want to see the survivors "killed in the water" and that "I'd really like to see them suffer. I would like Trump and Hegseth to make it last a long time so they lose a limb and bleed out."
RATING: Correct Attribution; Megyn Kelly on alleged war crimes: "I really do kind of not only wanna see them killed in the water, whether they're on the boat or in the water, but I'd really like to see them suffer. I would like [President Donald] Trump and [Defense Secretary Pete] Hegseth to make it last a long time so they lose a limb and bleed out."
